A hint of Japonica.

Trying to keep the brushwork nice and loose, I still have trouble photographing a painting that has had a coat of varnish, anyway I shall keep trying.!

3 Pears.

Hi Guys, this is a new little painting, completed a couple of weeks ago, I was after some simplicity,
and wanted to see if I could give the pears an inner glow,
It seems funny to be painting pictures when the world is in so much turmoil at the moment, with trouble spots all over the place and evil being shown on the news every night, maybe if we all made more art and less war the planet would be so much better off.

Starry Starry Night. (sold)

This is a commissioned painting done for a collector in the U.K. I dont think my photo does it justice,
I find that when you varnish a painting to bring all the colours together, it makes the peice hard to photograph especially when there is a sheen on the surface.
